Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

First patented in the early 20th century, bankers lamps were designed as task lighting for accountants, bankers, and librarians. The characteristic angled shade was engineered to direct light downward to reduce glare on paperwork during long working hours.

Traditional bankers lamps feature a heavy cast brass base and stem to prevent tipping, paired with a metal or glass shade mounted on an adjustable swivel joint, often accompanied by internal electrical wiring threaded through the stem.

Authentic pieces exhibit heavy weighted metal bases, original turn-key or pull-chain switches, natural patina on the brass or metal components, and historical makers marks or patent stamps near the base or socket.

Position the lamp on a dark wood executive desk, a modern home office workspace, or alongside books on a mahogany shelving unit to create a traditional academia accent.

Dust the shade and brass base regularly with a soft dry cloth. Avoid abrasive chemical cleaners that strip aged patina, and consult a qualified electrician to inspect and rewire vintage electrical cables for safety.
